5 white-locus mutants of Drosophila melanogaster, respresenting 5 different sub-sites, were treated with EMS and tested for reversion to wild-type. 4 of them were genuine mutants and one was not. Moreover, the ability of the 4 mutants to revert to wild-type differed from one another which therefore reflects a qualitatively distinct alteration in the genetic material delimited by each mutant.
对代表5个不同亚位点的5个黑腹果蝇白色基因座突变体用EMS进行处理,并检测其回复到野生型的情况。其中4个是真正的突变体,1个不是。此外,这4个突变体回复到野生型的能力彼此不同,因此反映了每个突变体所界定的遗传物质在性质上的明显改变。
